>>>>Don't some of these antidepressant drugs have the documented side effect of causing suicidal thoughts?
Absolutely.
However, I can't find anything in the package inserts of the antidepressents describing heaviness by anchor.
I agree. Suicide does not smell right.
A shotgun blast to the head should be sufficient.
why tie an anchor to your legs.
the x-files were more probable than this.
If you stand on the edge of the boat and shoot yourself, it would be pretty easy unless the anchor was really heavy. It would be even easier if the boat was small, like an FJ or something.
My kittie had a terrible accident, and after that, anytime I THOUGHT about eating meat I threw up.
THat is pretty depressing too, lol
A man received a message from Md. State police about his missing wife. It had good news and bad news. Bad news they found his wife, she was drowned and when they found her she had a half bushel of crabs attached to her.
Good news, they were putting her back over next day.
Inquiring minds. The anchor part makes no sense.
wait, did he shoot himself in the head with a shotgun before or after the threw himself overboard with the anchor wrapped around his body?
What kind of arm length would this man have to be able to shoot himself in the head with a shotgun?
This is not a suicide. Can't be.
I remember hearing that the engine was running when the empty boat was found. It is hard for me to understand how even a suicidally depressed person would leave his beloved yacht to be an unattended obstacle to everyone else on the Bay that day. Unless he left the boat aimed at a beach, knowing that it would be out of harm's way. But he was found farther away than the search area so it does not seem like he fell overboard (with an anchor around his ankle) near a beachy shore.
Maybe the blast of the shotgun blew him backward, and his feet entangled the anchor line accidentally.
I hope that your Mom is better! :-)
I am aware of the ICU impairment thing, I wonder if it has to do sometimes with sleep impairment being a contributing factor. (?????)
The post op depression can be a different or complicating issue.
Geez, do I need to just go write a medical book? Sorry for being so boring....
He put the shotgun in his mouth, I bet.
This was back in the early 90's. Mom's been gone since '01. (But I still talk to her...she just doesn't answer.)
The article says the boat was empty. No mention of finding the shotgun he was supposed to have used to shoot himself.
You shoot yourself underwater.
"Don't some of these antidepressant drugs have the documented side effect of causing suicidal thoughts?"
All anti-depressants should have that warning, about suicide. Drug companies have gotten away with hiding how depressing anti-depressants are for some people.
If this family has money, maybe they can fight the drug company, would be good to see as so many not so monied famiies just try to cope with the terrible grief that comes with suicide from anti-depressants.
Oh, it sounds like my sister in law. She saw an accident with a cattle truck, and it made her give up beef (I think she still eats fish). Well, be sure to get your iron and B vitamins! ;)

Aha!

I am so sorry for the loss of your Mother.
She is still watching out over you, I am sure.
So YOU had better behave!
